There are, however, a few welcome exceptions, such as the work of the Roman elegiac poet Sulpicia. This volume aims to bring the voice of the to the foreground: by acknowledging her as the author of part of \u003cem\u003eCorpus Tibullianum\u003c\/em\u003e 3, by appreciating the artistry of her work in terms of both poetic technique and engagement with previous literature, and by highlighting the pointedly feminine features of her poetry, which serve as interpretive keys to better understand not only her position in the elegiac tradition, but, more in general, the role of women in Augustan Rome. The chapters address a variety of topics: Sulpicia's commentary on and use of activities and characteristics traditionally considered feminine; Sulpicia's sophisticated style, particularly her allusive engagement with other poets; the question of what works can be attributed to Sulpicia; and the reception of Sulpicia's work in musical adaptations and possible future directions in the study of Latin elegy more broadly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGiulio Celotto, \u003cem\u003eUniversity of Virginia\u003c\/em\u003e, Laurel Fulkerson, \u003cem\u003eFlorida State University\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGiulio Celotto is Assistant Professor of Classics, General Faculty at the University of Virginia.
